Product Reviews

I bought these headphones to wear beneath my helmet while motorcycling. If you, like me, don't want or can't afford to spend hundreds on a Cardo or Sena unit for your helmet, this is an excellent budget alternative. The audio quality is surprisingly clear, with both treble and bass coming through very distinctly. The earplugs function excellently to filter wind noise, without interfering unduly with ability to maintain situational awareness (hearing horns, sirens, etc). They're quite comfortable, even beneath a helmet, for over an hour at a time. I have found that after about an hour and a half of riding, my ears begin to get a little sore from the pressure, but this is the case with every pair of Bluetooth earbuds I've ever worn. The only downside that I have identified with the product is the fact that when on the road, the very small control buttons are nearly impossible to use while riding, especially if you tuck the body of the headphones into your shirt/jacket. My remedy for this issue was initially to mount my phone to my handlebars, and switch songs or change volume by hand. However, I eventually settled on using a Bluetooth controller (JBL Click) for fully remote, one handed control of the phone, and by extension, the headphones. This solution cost me a total of about $80 for the JBL Click unit and the headphones themselves.

The only complaint is the battery low notification is way too frequent, tell me it's low once and I got it, no need to keep saying it every thirty seconds until they die. And the voice notification saying the battery is low is way too long, chime once or twice instead god its so annoying.

I purchased two kinds here in amazon but I can only see the wired one. These are really great. I have the wireless ones as well. I get about 8 hours on them. The company started out great with the foam plugs but have continued to change the design. Every design change they made to the foam plugs they claim is better NRR rating but I don’t think so. The originals they went for a bell shape, then a twist rocket shape to the, current tiny stepped shape. I believe the only ones that are any good are the bell shape that they no longer make. The bell shape is the only style that fits my ears and provides the best protection. I don’t believe the other designs are any good. I get major sound leakage around the edge of my ear canals because I guess they are too small for proper snug fit. My ear canal is too big for them. So I’ll still use them as long as I have the bell shape plugs. But once those are gone I’ll stop using them. Sad really, best ear plugs for my job but we’re ruined by constant design changes to make more money.

matches my companies color scheme for ear pro. Very happy. We will see if they hold up to the abuse of a steel yard. Good clear sound low or high. It's nice to be able to listen to a podcast or a song and still be able to communicate clearly with coworkers and management. Breaks up the dull monotonous drone work of manual labor.

Product looks exactly like the photo. I would give it 5 stars, if not for the battery life. The battery only lasts about 8 hours. I work a 12 hour shift and can't charge them. So they don't fully fulfill their purpose since I can use them for part of my shift.

My husband has to wear ear plugs at work, we found these and he absolutely LOVES them. Said the quality of the speakers are great, while also being totally noise canceling.

I used these under my helmet during a recent cross-country motorcycle trip, and I am very pleased. They do muffle a fair amount of noise, and the audio quality is good, with a healthy amount of bass while also not sounding tinny on the other end of the spectrum. The cord is long, and I appreciated that the headphones have a piece to cinch the cords closer together. Also included is a “cord tamer” and a surprisingly useful carrying case. Finally, I got caught in the rain while wearing these which turned out to be a positive experience because it made the ear pieces more pliable, providing a better fit.

I have two motorcycle helmets, a Nolan N104 and a Schuberth C3 pro. I use a Sena 20s on both, the Nolan was so damn loud at 70mph, I could barely hear anything. The C3pro is quietest helmet made, with Plugphones my Nolan is quieter and I can hear everything at 80mph. I now pulled the speakers out of the C3P and went with plug phones for that helmet as well. When putting them in my ears, I wet the plug phones with my finger and no need to compress them, they slide right in! They Don't have the bass some other earbuds do, but in noisy environments, the price is right and you won't do much better than these.

I can hear people talking and shoot guns without damaging my hearing tooth works well

I use these as ear plugs for noise reduction and as ear buds. They seal out a lot of noise as well as push the music/voice directly into my hear. Since I suffer hearing loss from years of industrial noise these make it possible to use my SENA Bluetooth headset to communicate with my girlfriend when we ride. BTW, i wear a half-helmet and I purchased an extra pair to have on hand.

As a welder, I’ve worked a handful of jobs managed by sadistic old geezers who don’t allow headphones OR radios, ever. As a lifelong learner that also has worked 60+ hours a week for three plus years now, being able to listen to podcasts and audiobooks is a necessity. Enter Plugfones! The answer to an entire generation’s cry for help! After a couple weeks testing it out and comparing it the blue and yellow ear protection at work, I finally came up with the ideal setup 1. Whatever pocket you carry your phone in, punch a small hole at the top and then, as best you can, sew around the edges to prevent us from enlarging. 2. Fit the Plugfones jack and an Apple dongle adaptor (for iPhone) the the hole you created and fortified. 3. Now run the earpieces around your side, up your back, and over your shoulders. Do this BEFORE you put your work shirt on. 4. Now, to prevent the Plugfones from getting dangerously tangled or suspiciously wrapped up, give the earpieces the proper slack (I measure by pulling down to centerline of my chest), then use gorilla tape or duct tape to secure the Y in the cord between your shoulder blades. 5. Enjoy audio practically risk free. I’ve been using this method at a very micromanaged, absurdly safety conscious manufacturing plant, and in 5 months no one has noticed or even given my “earplugs” a second though. Hiding in plain sight!

I've used these headphones for over 5 years now. I work in a factory and they help save my hearing. I wear them at work, at home (mowing the lawn or using machinery), even on hikes. I use them every day for hours. The battery is great. The sound is great. I mostly listen to books, but sometimes music. I can wear them and have a conversation with people without issues. They come with 2 tip options. I use the silicone ones and I never have any problems with ear aches or headaches. I wear them for 5-8 hours a day, at least 5 days a week. I used to leave them in my car to charge and so I wouldn't forget them, but the heat and cold caused the wire to come apart by the earpiece after like a year. These are so worth the money. I love that they have a cord connecting them so I can take them out of my ear whenever I need to and not have to worry about losing one. Excellent customer service too. Fantastic product.

Pretty nice headphones that block a lot of the noise and stay in your ears really well but the remote is down by your pocket and gets snagged on things as your walking around. A busy has a set for when he's racing and he swears by them, they almost block out too much noise.

At first ears the sound quality isn't what I'm used to. It's pretty flat and clear with no bass but you can't tell them apart from ear plugs so thats a plus at work. They stay in your ear very very well. I've never had a headphone stay in my ear like this. I started using them while riding my motorcycle and I can actually hear the music over my loud exhaust. And I don't have to keep repositioning them in my ear at highway speeds.

I work in a factory where we are required to wear earplugs. I got these as a way to entertain myself during my mind-numbing job. I don't have to have the volume on my ipod up very loud to clearly hear the music and I'm able to hear any announcements over the intercom as well. My only issue is that only one side of the ear phones work so I'm not sure if the wires got jiggled or what the issue is exactly. I thought they were both working when I first started using them but as long as I can hear the music playing it is much better than the normal ear plugs I had before. They do seem to do both, serve as earphones and block out the noise. I recommend these for any industrial environment that requires its employees to wear ear plugs, they are worth the money.

I've tried a dozen different ear speakers for under my helmet. I've tried helmet speakers too. Nothing g worked over the sound of 15 Outlaw Racing Karts screaming on the track. These were the FIRST ear buds that I could hear the flagman!! I bought 2 more pairs in case I break my first ones.. Love them!!!

These are great for riding motorcycles only down side is that the ear plugs might not fit you well if you have lil ears, would be cool if they was a lil louder but they are clear when you ride and stay in place I only used them three times so far will do an update if they break or anything in the near future but if you been look for good sound quality while riding this have been the best solution so far and trust me I spent thousands to find the perfect solution and other down side you might get a full 6 hours of listening time so get two pair if you ride far, the quality could also be better more rugged

I have lost count of the amount of re buys I have made for both myself and a few co workers over the past 4 years. We are all welders and therefore abuse these headphones. Even with the abuse they typically last around 3 months or more. My company has a "No Headphone" policy so this is how we get around that. As long as you're smart about it, Safty has no idea. They work better than the ear plugs they provide as a nice bonus. My only complaint is that they're a little too wide for how deep they go into your ear, which takes getting used to.

Though I'm still looking for that magically silent sound stage on the open highway with nothing but pure sweet music in my ears, these plugs are the best I've found in the interim. The fidelity isn't terrible. They are about 2/3 as quiet as a full-on foam earplugs. I tried the foam tips first and found them difficult to insert and uncomfortable. Switching to the rubber tips, they were easy to insert, much more comfortable, and to my surprise noticeably quieter. While these plugs didn't entirely silence the wind and engine noise, the music was definitely the primary sound in my ears, and I could hear most of the finer nuances, even at speeds up to 70 MPH. The real beauty of these plugs though is that nothing but flexible wire sticks out of your ears at all, making it easy to get a full-face helmet on and off without so much as budging the plugs from whatever perfect position you arranged them in originally. Tested on a Triumph Bonneville T120 with no windscreen, inside a Shoei RF-1200 helmet, playing RUSH "2112".

Have been using these in an industrial, loud, setting for over 7 months now. Work great. You have to push them into your ear pretty good to get a good seal and also brings better sound quality. Only con is after awhile, the main center piece starts to pull out of the replaceable inserts easier. Need better barbs on the center piece. Otherwise, realistic noise protection is more like 19-20. Still way better than no music all day!

Use them everyday at Work.. Usually last at least 6 months..

I was concerned that my very tight helmet would rip these out when I put it on. No worries. They stay in, they do a good job of playing music while I ride. I don't need to crank the volume up while riding. What I can comfortably hear while standing still works fine while moving on the bike. The helmet actually smashes them more into your ears, so they become slightly louder when worn under your helmet.

I really like these headphones. I use them for mowing the lawn, tractor work and some shop work. They keep the outside noise to an appropriate level. Connected easily to my iPhone. Sound quality isn’t what you’d get out of higher end headphones, but out works for audiobooks and music that I listen to. Battery life is ok, outlast a tank of of the mower on 5 acres, and it’s easy to keen charged.

I feel for the price they wear out fast I’m in my 4th pair

Works great to reduce noise. However the sound quality is rather poor. You also really need to crank up the volume to hear anything around noisy or loud equipment.

I am able to get up close at concerts. I can still hear the bands while protecting my hearing. They are easy to take in and out.

Works perfectly! Fast shipping

I work in heavy industry around a lot of noisy machinery. Hearing protection is a must. I found that when I receive (or make) a phone call, there is no way I can hear the other party. I've tried a various earbuds designed for sports and fitness to no avail. So based on reviews I tried these. The noise attenuation is in keeping with similar standard earplugs, the sound quality is very good even for music and I can make and receive phone calls without having to go find a quiet zone. Excellent value for the money!

First things first, of course when you are working and using these on a very regular basis, they will wear out and they will start to break. I dont know why people expect $16 ear buds to last forever even after daily use and being used in work environments. Chances are that if you need ear plugs, you are working in a place that requires physical labor or using machinery and alot of things can happen. I work in a production plant and I bought these headphones to blend in at work and so far, speaking face to face with my supervisor and also the plant manager with these in and music playing, they were both oblivious to their true purpose. I also bought these since they were the cheapest option and i wanted to see if the bluetooth pair would be an investment that id like to take. So far, that answer is yes. These headphones sound great, and with them being 50% “earplugs”, i can use these at low volumes while being able to hear the music clearly with minimal background noise. The materials used for these headphones are nice and silky soft rubber which are super comfortable and can be worn for hours without becoming uncomfortable or irritating. They also come with foam tips, but i havent used them because i feel like they would get dirty very quickly. I use these with the Apekx bluetooth adapter which is also very convenient and sleek, but thats for a different review. These headphones do not have a microphone or volume controller on them, but you get what you pay for. These are basic headphones without any bells and whistles but they are also made of great materials with great sound quality and they do a great job of drowning out the background noise. They come with a convenient carrying case which is good for prolonging the lifespan of these headphones. These were a great purchase and i will be buying the bluetooth pair.

I bought these for work so I can listen to music while packing. The look just like the ear plugs we have at work so no one has noticed anything. I believe they are good value for the price. The music isn't the best compared to other earphones, but it does the job and its discrete.

I use this at work, during those long and lonely shifts at the warehouse. We are not required to wear earplugs but are forbidden from carrying a phone. I run the cord inside my shirt and a small hole in my pocket allows me to completely hide the fact that these are actually headphones. I have a sandisk mp3 player loaded with audiobooks and these work great. I have had them for over a month and not a single issue. I see some feedback saying they break or one ear goes out over a short period of time, but this hasn't been a problem for me. Perhaps because I am not constantly checking my player or removing the cord from the player on a regular basis. I am very satisfied with these and will repurchase when they do break. Worth every penny!

Absolutely brilliant. I use them while motorcycling and they easily stay in place while putting helmet on/off. It fits and seals as well as a foam type earplug but easier to get into position as it's sturdy enough to push into position. Surprisingly good bass response as well.

I bought this on July 24 it's September 18th. They don't work no more. Great when they work. Good enough I'm buying another but they don't last long.

So I normally don't leave reviews, and my initial opinion on these was that they're decent and allow me to listen to music while also protecting my ears from loud ambient noise. The sound quality was about what I expected from a tiny bud hidden in an ear plug. I love the extra long cord that lets me hide the controls under the collar of my shirt. Overall pleased with them, EXCEPT for something that blew my mind! I may have accidentally ran them through the washing machine. And the rinse cycle. Oops.(Remember to check your pockets!) However, I let them dry for a day or so, charged them back up, and they still work well enough that I don't need to replace them. I don't recommend washing them though, they're not supposed to be water (and detergent) proof and the sound in the left bud is a tad muffled now after the rinse cycle. But they have no issues fully charging connecting, or playing music, and still protect my ears despite the impromptu bubble bath! That deserves 5 stars from me! Battery-wise, they tend to go about 9 and a half hours of continuous use before dying. I can charge them up on my commute to and from work. The washing machine incident didn't affect the battery life at all, it's the same now as it was when I first tried them. Definitely recommended if you want some tunes to help tune out loud noise without bulky over-ear muffs, or if you're not allowed to have music at work and wanna be sneaky.

These are awesome. If you have a job that requires you to wear ear plugs but you want to listen to music or whatever. This is it. After 6 months in a brutal environment they still work great. The sound quality is not horrible. It lacks bass mostly. Otherwise it's loud enough to hear over loud machines. The battery life is absolutely incredible. Everyday I get 10 straight hours from a charge. If your looking for sound quality then go buy a $200 Bose or Sony headset. If your trying to enjoy yourself while following rules at work then this is it. Highly recommend.

User friendly and works great for work when you are not a loud blue tooth But cord could be longer to hide the battery packs on the cords

I'm not usually one to write reviews for a product, but I feel as if this warranted one. This is one of the best product I have ever purchased. They work perfectly in the high noise plant where I work and since they look just like regular earplugs, no-one was any the wiser. I received the product Sep 2, 2015, and they lasted me until Jan, 20, 2016. WELL past the 90 day manufacture warranty. I put these earplugs to the ultimate test wearing them 12hrs a day 4 days a week for 6 months straight around water, dust, chemicals, and other types of dirt and debris. I even accidentally dropped them into a bucket of water, and they came out as if nothing even happened. They did get a little dirty, but being able to easily remove the plugs from the drivers made cleaning easy. Although many reviews claim that the product was cheaply made, that was not my experience and it might not be yours. Give these earplug headphones a try, I know I did. And I just ordered another pair.

Works very well for using as an ear plug. Sound quality is a little to be desired, but truthfully it’s worth the sacrifice. Battery longevity is amazing. Have never run out of battery life yet, even using for 9 hours almost steadily. Having a dual weight distribution keeps them centered all day. I have already purchased multiple pairs just in case! Definitely a must buy if you need earplugs and want music/podcasts/books while you work. Works very well for phone calls also. Have used with helmet on a motorcycle and also work well. Enjoy them!!

Have been using these for YEARS at work ever since I found out about them. They are better hearing protection than the ones my company provides! (the foam tips are better; silicone tips are the same/slightly less than my work ones, but still very safe) Sound is quality. Not going to get amazing bass, but they have a good enough 'bump' to them, and are very clear to hear. Durability is quality (for me at least) I use them 8-12hrs, 6-7days a week in a warehouse environment and they have held up just fine for me. (but I am also sorta ocd about keeping my equipment in good condition, so your experience may vary) Battery lasts right around 12hrs on a full charge. Battery life also determines on what you're using them for; If you use them to talk on the phone for a long period of time, the battery drains faster than if you just use them to listen to music/etc. But the plus is they are fairly quick charging. If I know the battery isn't full and I have to work a 12hr unexpectedly, I can throw them on the charger for 10mins or so and they will last the rest of my shift just fine. I know it probably goes against everything you've ever been told when buying electronics, but I recommend getting the Asurion insurance it offers when you purchase them. I've been using these for years, 6-7days a week for the past 5 or so years, and every pair I've bought only lasted right around a year, year and a half before something internally went wrong with them. Whether it be one of the earpieces stops working, or the microphone stops working, its always something right around the same time after purchase. But the Asurion insurance makes it very easy to make a claim, turn them in, get reimbursed and buy a new pair. basically you're getting your next pair for only 8bucks with the insurance. Not a bad deal for a bit of a failsafe. Hopefully your pair wont, but just in case.

I got these minutes before I went on a ride and decided I'd have to love em or hate em for two hours. Packaging is easy open and they have a wire tie holding them together. Putting them in is easy, especially because I have some 3m silicone plugs myself. These are actually easier to get in and out. I haven't tried the foamy yet. Over all the comfort is an 8 of 10 (flanges). I can tell they're in, and maybe one wasn't seated well, so it gave me the slightest inclination that it may be digging in, but it never did, and I had no stinging sensation upon removing them characteristic of the flanges digging in. I would wear these everyday without worry about comfort. . The helmet didn't affect the plugs at all. The sound is surprisingly excellent. 7 of 10. It's not Bose Quietcomfort 20i but I could hear my music and every note and lyric, no matter my speed or wind, and it was blustery on my ride. I listen to a lot of EDM and even the bass delivery was respectable for being plugs. I ride a liter bike with stock exhaust and a full helmet I will definitely purchase some replacement flanges or foamies once I try both and decide, but I love these things. Short of a 200 dollar pair of earplugs, these will work just fine. UPDATE: After a couple months I've decided I really like the foamy plugs better (10 of 10 comfort). They seal better and are extremely comfortable. The digging I was scared of ended up being just that. A bit of digging in the left ear. Not a huge deal, but enough that I decided to only reorder foamies. (probably more my ear shape than a universal issue.) I keep the flanges though, as back up. The foamies last a while, too. I'm running this first set ragged waiting on the replacements, but they still seat and stay without any issue. I really can't stress that for what you pay and what they do, the sound on these is really good. I wont ride without these at this point, even without music playing. They are excellent at just dulling the wind and engine noise and make the ride down right quiet and relaxing.

I’m not sure if I am just to hard on these but the sound on the one side is like a whisper. Plugs are hard to keep in. I just ordered the plugfone that is one step better. Hopefully they will last longer.

Silences the sound around you very well so you can hear your tunes. Able to be heard at 160mph on motorcycle.

These aren't for the audiophile but work well for a guy who wants some light hearing protection with tunes. Outside in the wind I seem to get a whistle which is annoying and in the blower room thy aren't quite enough protection (but I can hear the music decent). I guess the do what I want relatively well tfor the price I paid.

Left ear bud don’t work ! First pair I bought work great for the 5 months I had them ! 2nd pair trash 🙄

Bizarrely miserable auditory conditions like misophonia and hypericusis are unfortunately very real, and I'm not talking about being annoyed by someone loudly chomping their food with a clicking jaw. For most people, being annoyed by that sound is basically just being human. I'm talking about the kind of life where one is developing instant nausea when the sound of a blow dryer at a certain Hz level turns on, or getting a migraine headache when cymbals play over a phone speaker. Large portions of my life have been defined by highly-specific sound sensitivity that caused a physical response and recently when I decided to take a year-long extension class with hundreds of people, I put myself in a situation where I was suffering on a daily basis. Before long I had triggered an episode of full-blown hypericusis which was miserable on a level I didn't know existed. Every sound I heard was irritating and the very act of anticipating it began to give me uncontrollable anxiety, which made my hearing worse, and it was a vicious cycle for months. I tried everything including other brands of "noise cancelling" headphones but they really didn't seem to do the trick. I took a leave of absence from the class but am due back in a few weeks, and I was extremely worried about the situation until I tried these headphones. The difference in noise dampening is amazing. So much less sound competition and background chaos. The human cacophony is quieted and I feel like I can actually focus on what I need to do. The buds also charge easily and quickly, but the best part is that you get two pairs!! Now I never have to suffer through a room full of reels/videos/tiktoks/snapchats/stories (seriously it is SO excessive and rude, particularly when it's multiple people or at a high volume, and especially with some of the content that exists). No more avoiding the long echoing halls with clacking high heels or symphony of ringing phones in the waiting areas at work. Loud noises don't have to be my enemy if I don't have to hear all of it so aggressively. As of now I'm a huge fan of this product and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Once the class starts again, I'll be sure to see how these are when they're being used constantly all day every day, and I will be updating this review if the performance suffers.

One complaint is the same one I have with all these motorcycle related speakers and phones, ilthey are so high pitched. This one was pretty good, though. I thought it sounded pretty average everywhere, as opposed to mostly high pitch. The plugs themselves are bigger than I would prefer, and can bother me after a while, especially in my shoei rf 1200. All in all, I'd say excellent for the price point!

Dont waste your money buy some treks they are way better last longer and more durable plus u can get a base pair for about 80$ MY PLUG PHONES SUCKED BUT I BOUGHT 3 pair of treks my self in 5 years my wife a pair and her mother and all of them still work today

The rolls Royce of ear plugs. It comes with 2 sets of ear plugs, one for full protection with interchangeable comfortable plugs and one that filters out partial noise for concerts. Brilliant! Everything is as shown on box, no need to cut down more trees for a piece of paper with instructions. It's not hard to figure out the strap is for attaching to the plugs so you don't lose them. And a little pouch to keep everything in.

Works great

Me parece que el sonido es excelente y el precio no es tan caro para la buena calidad que son

Sound is good, they don't cancel out the sound as good as a normal ear plug, but they will help cut down on shop noise. My personal experience is to buy a Bluetooth receiver on Amazon for $10 and plug the ear buds into it. They are stealthy and do not have all the extra addons so they look like legit chorded ear plugs.

I bought these for when I mow. My other earbuds just can't cut it. I hesitated because everybody said that they were not good for small ears. I found that if you work with him a little bit you can get them in tight. Are they as good as earmuffs No, but they are earbuds.... I am now I happily able to ride around on my mower and not miss any podcasts! I'm a happy camper

Purchased off of Amazon, sound quality better then my Corsair headset for my PC. Comfy fit, alot of noise reduction for just the standard ear buds, and good Bluetooth distance.

I work in an extremely noisy environment for much of my week and am a constant wearer of normal yellow ear plugs. These work just as well and give me the added benefit of allowing me to have a bit of music to help cover my tinnitus. An added plus is they don't function as a phone headset so I don't have to try to talk to anyone over the din of motors and fans. I hope they're durable because I'm a believer. The sound quality isn't the greatest but the sound protection is pretty solid.

These earbuds are great for work. I work in a tire manufacturing plant and use aftershock titanium bluetooth headphones which are an approved item by the safety department. Occasionally I forget to bring my headphones and I'm so used to having music while I work that it totally throws me off. I bought these plug phones because they look like earplugs, but it was a pain because they had to be plugged into my phone. Recently I washed and dried them mistakenly for the second time which damaged them beyond repair. I was pleasantly surprised. Especially by the overall sound quality. This item is made well. I bought two more pair so I have a set at home and I keep a set in the bag that I carry to and from work for the rare times that I forget my headphones. I was also introduced to a bluetooth transmitter which I can plug my plug phones into, clip the transmitter to my belt and enjoy Wireless music because the transmitter turns them into bluetooth headphones. The transmitter has volume, skip forward and back controls. I most definitely recommend these plugfones alone or in conjunction with the bluetooth transmitter. Unpackaging was quick and effortless. Buy this item knowing that they work well... Just don't dry them in the dryer. ?

Got these for work, music sounds like trash thru these but audiobooks and podcasts sound great. That's what I wanted them for anyway. They last about 10 hours before they need to be charged. I work in a very loud environment and these do actually reduce the noise very well. I recommend these but just realize if music is your reason they will severely disappoint you, but voice like audible and podcasts sound great.

Just Like it, love the wireless, also, due to ear protection with music. Use for mowing, outside entertainment.

These are great for riding motorcycles only down side is that the ear plugs might not fit you well if you have lil ears, would be cool if they was a lil louder but they are clear when you ride and stay in place I only used them three times so far will do an update if they break or anything in the near future but if you been look for good sound quality while riding this have been the best solution so far and trust me I spent thousands to find the perfect solution and other down side you might get a full 6 hours of listening time so get two pair if you ride far, the quality could also be better more rugged

When they're fully charged they last me a full 8+ hour shift and still have a little charge to start the next day. They take about 30-40 minutes to fully charge. They stay in my ears well. My only complaint is how long the wire is connecting both ear buds.

I have E*A*R brand ear plugs like these that are the best. These work (almost) as well for sound suppression, ( like 92%), and they play music! The volume is a bit limited, ( a good thing) but, even when I am grindingon steel, I can hear the music clearly.

I bought my pkugfones liberate for use on a motorcycle. I have a $600 helmet with a $300 Bluetooth system but I had to have the volume up too high. With the plugfones I can get more sound with less decibels blasting thru my ears. Plus the bass and overall quality is better than my Sena Bluetooth and AirPod Pro. These are definitely worth the $$.

We have a farm and feedlot operation. My husband needed hearing protection and earbuds. These were literally half the price that the local store wanted but the exact brand and quality. He wears these in the shop to listen to talk radio and while grinding hay. The battery has a long life and so far they have held up to all the dirt and abuse he gives them.

Where I work my boss has banned me from using headphones, completely ignoring the fact that they actually HELP me focus and work more efficiently. These have been a lifesaver. They seem to trick the fascist fool and have withstood the harsh environment that I work in. I even accidentally sent them through the wash and they still work. For the same money you can probably get better sound quality out of a normal pair, so you're definitely paying for the camouflage. They fit more comfortably than normal earplugs, too.

They definitely block out the outside noise, sound of music is great through them. Only downside is after a couple months of use one side or the other cuts out. Still block out noise but you get no music sound. Have bought 4 pairs now 3 of the 4 this has happened to the 4th ones I haven’t used yet. This happens to other coworkers as well. These definitely don’t last a long time but do work good for the price

Bought for motorcycle use. Its only been a few weeks. But so far they work great. Alot more bass then i expected. My only minor complaint is the wire connecting them together is rather long. The battery is good. They are comfortable. They fit under my full face helmet, without popping out of my ears when i put helmet on. The wind and engine noise are muted like traditional earplugs. The sound is loud and pretty darn good.

I bought these so I could listen to music, etc. while shredding, plowing, and planting. They keep out enough sound to allow that while the tractor is idling, but once I crank up and go the tractor noise increases to the point that I would have to BLAST the music to hear it and I don't want to blow out my hearing. I'm going to try wearing earmuffs over these and see if that works. I would say for the use I intended, these are good but not great.

PROS: Build quality, sound quality, comfort, battery life, ease of use, price. CONS: None OPPORTUNITIES: An app to manage the device with battery-remaining info, sound/equalizer settings, etc. would be a nice addition.

I use these at work to listen to podcasts and audio books but if your plan is to listen to music, I would not recommend these. The bass is just not there. The battery life is pretty good. I've been using these for several months now and I get 10hrs of listen time at about 70-75% volume no problem.

I'm to lazy but it's good

Have great so far. My only complaint is the noise canceling, but I do work in a factory setting.

Husband works in a factory and uses these daily! It's been a year now and they still work great 👍

Working on a factory line as a Engineer sometimes I can be alone for hours examining and fixing things. These let me listen to Audiobooks and I am able to apply to our companys guidlines for hearing protection. The noise cancelation is amazing and I feel like its a normal set of ear plugs when i have them paused or off. I can go all day without having to charge and they charge up really quick.

No hay necesidad de hacer mala promoción dice que puede durar hasta 10 horas de batería y se me descargó en 7 horas mi primer día de uso ni siquiera mis 8 horas de trabajo

Sound is really good for the price. I’ve been using it at work for 2 weeks and no one has notice and hopefully never will lol

Bought these for motorcycle road trips hoping they would work as earplugs to block wind noise and also work as earbuds so I could listen to music while I’m riding. They did exactly that. Wind noise is greatly reduced and music is clear. They’re comfortable too. If you ride 70mph or more they aren’t much good. Just keep your speed under 70 if you want to hear them. Over 70 they make great earplugs. The Bluetooth connection is good for 50-60 feet and they reconnect as soon as you’re back in range. The best way I found to wear them is to put them around my neck with the retaining clip in front. The retaining clip does not stay on the wires very well so I put a small o ring on it and it holds the wire fine. The wires could be a little longer. If you have an 18” neck you’ll need to just let the wires hang in front. I have played music at 80-100% volume for 7-8 hrs and the battery still has power. I recommend these things. They are a little spendy but so is a good set of Bluetooth ear buds.

I used these at work. Cut a small hole in the liner of my pocket and ran it under my shirt. Nobody could tell and helped me to enjoy my job more. Why jobs don't want you to enjoy your work makes no since to me. Especially since these are more noise cancelling than the earplugs they supply you with.

Great for noise cancellation. Purchased for when I mow the lawn and works well. Not so impressed by the sound quality though. At this price range, I expected better quality.

Great noise cancellation performance on these plugs and great sound quality as well.

It is a much better build than the liberator. The mic is built into the controls which was a major problem with the liberator because it stuck out like a sore thumb for people trying to hide that they are using headphones (also the mic is the first place for the Liberators to fail). Unfortunately the sound quality of these are not as good. The bass is lacking but for people who work in noisy environments, this is really the only choice except for bone conduction headphones which sound even worst than these. They are decent and worth the $50 price. The Liberators are too fragile for the $99, these are much more hearty.

Great sound quality and outstanding noise cancellation, extended battery life. I charge them over night and they last through my whole entire 10 hr shift of straight podcasts lol.

They last me all day at work even in the heat they have a nice bass they cancel out sounds extremely well they charge fast I wish it was a c type charger tho

They do exactly what they're supposed to do, and they do it well. They last about ten hours, which is why I gave it 3 stars for battery life. I am the only person at my workplace that uses these "earplugs" (everyone else uses SparkPlugs) and no one has questioned whether or not these are just earplugs.

So I owned a pair of plugfones prior to them updating this newer model and fell in love with them. However, their previous model didn't have the durability I was hoping for. I work in a factory setting with hard hats and earplugs are required. These nifty plugfones gave me the ear protection while still being able to listen to my tunes, whoever created these are genius! They look just like the ones at my work so don't draw much attention, and this newer version lets you choose wether you want the foam or silicone base. They seemed to hold up much better than the previous ones as my can be somewhat rough on these (I've dropped my hat with these attached many times). Pretty impressed with this product and have recommended to several coworkers.

I wanted to use them on my riding lawnmower, listening to podcast. They do cut out a lot of background noise but not enough to block the riding mower. They would be great for flights, or as a passenger in a car. Happy to have them and will use them on other projects.

Update: did receive a replacement unit, and it works great battery last full 12 hours if volume is at between 50 and 75% which is really good audio. Would recomend ordering replacement plugs because they get dirty really fast, after sone time worn out ear plugs do affect sound so it is best if they are replaced periodically. Battery drains very fast even after charging it all day, last around 6 hours, sound quaility is decent but battery is horrible will be returning

I purchased them nearly half a year ago, and they are still working. Not the best sound quality, but I work in a warehouse where they don’t allow headphones so they get the job done in a discreet effective way. Not once was I questioned whether they were actually headphones or earplugs. (I ran the wire on the inside of my shirt down in my pocket to my phone). Definitely worth it if you work in a warehouse or something. It makes time go by so much faster.

I am required to wear earplugs at my workplace even though my particular area doesn't have much noise. These allow me to listen to podcasts/audiobooks when able to and not have to switch out earbuds for earplugs when needed. I keep the wire looped around my ponytail and covered with a head scarf so that it isn't obvious they are bluetooth and so far, no one has questioned me about them. They work just as well as standard earplugs for that purpose, keep me from getting a safety violation, and work good enough for what I would use earbuds for. They aren't the greatest for music though, especially if you like a lot of bass, but they're not the worst either.

These are awesome. I've bought several cheaper options trying to find something that could work like these but they were all a waste of money. These are so comfortable and sound great and really work as good Earplugs. I was standing right in the middle of a lawn mower, a generator, and an exterior HVAC fan and they were all nothing more then a dull hum smothered by the sounds of whatever music I had on. I then got the chance to use them for the original reason I wanted them to begin with. I do motorcycle track days so I'm out on a road course race track on a motorcycle, usually I just wear Earplugs, but I like listeting to music to get me pumped. Theaw worked like a charm, very easily able to put these in and then get my helmet on over them woth no snagging or pulling etc. It drowns out the motorcycle and the wind noise and shines through the music. 10/10 should have got these a year ago or more and will get them again immediately if these ever break or get lost.

I have tried other brands, these work and stay in my ears. In addition, I can hear the music very good even on the lowest volume level and still hear changes with my mower engine and deck. While headsets would probably do okay, in the south Texas sun, they would get sweaty and I might not be able to wear my large brim hat. Regardless, I have learned the best way to extend the life of any ear plugs is too clean your ears before use.

They are comfortable and work very well the only complaint I would have is that my red pair only charges up to 90% so on the days I start with those is usually the only day that the same pair won't last the whole 10 hour shift

I generally can't stand earbud headphones—they never stay in my ears and aren't comfortable—but about a year ago I discovered Koss Plugs, which have memory foam ear inserts and managed not to fall out as a result. I liked those, but the sound quality wasn't great and eventually they physically wore out and needed to be replaced. I looked around and found these, which are slightly more expensive than the Plugs were, but were well reviewed and had a few features that the Plugs don't: the jack lead isn't angled, so it fits nicely through my iPhone case, there's an inline volume and pause control as well as a microphone (which I've actually never used, so I can't comment on its quality), and they function as real earplugs with a distinct reduction in ambient noise. I spend about an hour every day listening to music on a bus; buses are not known for being the quietest of places, and when I have these headphones in—even with no music playing—my environment is noticeably quieter and much more pleasant for that, and as headphones these sound pretty nice, with more bass than I've come to expect from small drivers. Additional points for unexpected durability: I accidentally washed these headphones once and they still sound fine. My only complaint with them is that besides the microphone there's no obvious indication of left/right, so I actually swapped my left plug with a different colored spare. You can tell which side is which for sure by looking at an embossed marking on the driver, but that's difficult in poor lighting conditions.

Don’t understand why the button is so close to the aux, and also the foam plugs get dirty super quickly, other than that they work great!

Good little look-alikes! Used these at my workplace to inconspicuously listen to music. I would use these and run the cord down my shirt to a Bluetooth dongle with a clip that I could clip to my pants. I wear longer shirts to make sure the dongle is covered as I work. Used these for several years, only a really close co-worker has found out when they went to mess with my earplugs. My main complaint is that they’re kind of hard to grip by the base when they’re in my ears. It makes me want to pull them out by the cord, which broke my first set. They made my ears a bit sore using them at first, but I got used to them. Went through 6-8 pairs using them 9 hours a day/5 days a week for about 4 years. Pretty good product overall.

Ok Ive had my pair for almost a year (You purchased this item on April 20, 2018.), still work no damage and Im not gentle with them, I work with heat and welding metal all day long. My only disapproval is is the battery life which states 12, at first it did last up to 15 but over the past years its continuously dropped to around a little less then 8. Also there is this weird noise thats like a cd skipping that happens randomly the only way to clear it is to turn them off and turn them back on and reconnect, on one occasion it wouldnt shut off I have to plug it in to get it to reset but tricking it my charging it for 5 second then start then back up, thats happened once so far. I still have the original ear plugs it came with they have seen better days but over all I use then everyday up to 8 hrs a day and 5 days a week. I cant complain cause they have worked well for me. I keep seeing reviews about they break after a month or even a week, what the hell are you people doing with them? Using them as a rope to swing across caverns. My single complaint is the battery life, and being that its been almost a year Im sure its no longer covered under any warranty

Nobody can tell these are headphones. they look like regular ear plugs, I bought a little blue tooth adapter for it.

Great! Only thing I wish is that it didn’t have a cord. Where I worked you weren’t aloud to wear headphone but you could wear earplugs. So I bought these earplugs 🤫👀. The cord and the volume control just got in the way even when I wasn’t trying to hide them. Just hope the company would just the ear pieces. Would buy again

Blocks out noise like ear plugs, and work like decent ear buds. The package came with a ribbed plastic earplug and a foam set. I drill concrete a lot, and these plugs both protect my hearing, and let me keep in my musical zone. They look professional when you're working, and they're a great alternative to "power boxes" when you're on a site that doesn't allow worksite wide music. The plugs failed at about 5 months, the manufacturer sent me a new set without question. Plugfones are legit as hell.

They work like magic, and they last the full 10 hours plus a little more and the noise canceling is pretty good, not as good as my AirPods but they work just as good for the price. I work nights, 12 hour shift and even when they die I just use them as ear plugs so I don’t have to hear the machines or pallets being dropped.

If you're thinking of buying, LOOK AT ALL THE PICS! It has a very obvious mic that hangs down right at your mouth. I got these because they are similar to the earplugs provided at work and, were it not for the microphone, they would be perfect.

Excellent noise cancellation you expect from earplugs and I really like the sound quality. They stay in your ear and even with highway speed winds they do not budge. I use them while riding my loud ass harley. The cancellation and speakers work so well together I can't really hear the engine which is what I use to know when to shift, which is a good thing. That was what was going to make me deaf. They aren't Beats but Beats aren't practical for what I use them for. I recommend.

They work excellent

Love em

These are great. I use them while mowing. They successfully block/lessen the noise of the mower and allow me to listen to my music at a lower, more comfortable volume. The foam and the silicone tips are very comfortable. The pairing process is easy and the controls are easy to use as well. I also find the molded neck piece is very comfortable. It keeps the wire out of the way and in place. Thanks for making a great product, truly worth the money.

These earplugs are one of the best things to ever happen in my life I have really sensitive hearing, and didn't even know it until I started using these. My sleep has really improved as a result of using the full-protection set, along with being able to focus better with the filtered set. They have good instructions in the box about how to put them in. If you put them in, and find that they don't really have an effect on your hearing; you probably didn't put them in right, because these definitely work, and are deigned to work with virtually any ear canal size. Another perk of these earplugs over others is that you get two different kinds, and two different tip types in one package, while the same price will only get you one set from another manufacturer that is probably priced Higher than this one. The tips are guaranteed to work for years, unless you do something to harm them directly; sturdy stuff them tips. Hope this review helps the customer, and the manufacturer. Have a wonderful day!

Comfortable. Charge fast and the battery lasts a long time. They look like industrial earplugs not music earbuds which is good. No one can tell you are listening to music. The negative is the sound quality is very poor. I had these same headphones I bought several years ago. They still work. And the sound was way better to on the old model. Way better. But these are okay for being able to listen to music vs just plain earplugs. I use them when riding my motorcycle. They are comfortable and perfect for riding.

This is my second pair after the first pair lost audio in one side after 6 years of tough use and abuse. I not only would buy them again, I did. Please do follow the directions to reach behind your head and pull your ear back while inserting the earbud on each side. You’ll be glad you did.

This is definitely a situation where the whole is greater than the sum of its combined parts. Definitely not Bose quality sound but when you need these, you need these and they do work great for what they are. There are some minor annoyances and imperfections but if your looking at these you probably need them for something specific and I think you will likely be very satisfied. Stated clearly, If you need earplugs with sound this is the ticket... if you just want earbuds or headphones look at earbuds and headphones, not these.

Honestly I like it, it's strictly focus for work, volume is limited for a reason. If I want it louder, I have other ones I would use. It blocks noise like 80% which is good for me at work. These ones sounded like a record player, which is more clearer than digital player. It's more defined, enough Highs, mids are pretty clear, bass is enough for work. No trouble on pairing, battery is pretty good so far, I did 2x10 hours shift before I get the low battery warning. Ive shortened or coiled the cord to my needs by tapping the excess wires. It doesn't get in my way. Will update when battery performance decreased. At first youll feel pressure in the external auditory canal, but ill forget its in there when busy with work, It does get slippery inside the ears after a while but it doesn't fall out, I had to take it out slowly or it will give that pop noise, which would be bad if it's daily, slowly works better. Still doing more research to understand it better for me. I just think of it as if it was a torque ranch with 200lbs strength, can't use it on a 10lbs nut, it would snap it. Strictly for work. I don't know why these sounded better than the Freereign ones, it more clear, but overall both is good for me at work. Since I have 2, battery isn't daily concern....yet. will update later.

first they have better prices and deals on the plugfones website. Ok, so these things for the most part are great. i work on a ship in an engine room which requires hearing protection at all times. these things for their price were very clear and good to use. i was so excited to discover that they were clear enough to listen to audio books while standing next to a 4000HP engine. Also i would wear them for relaxing use too. they are essentially and economical sound canceling. both the airplane and the ship these are perfect for tuning out the world. Now they did not last. I wore these things 8hrs/days every day whether listening my ipod or not. after 2 weeks i broke the headphone jack but in its defence i clocked my iphone VERY hard and knew it broke before looking at it and was very hapy to see the headphones broken and not the phone. i solder a new headphone jack to them and they worked great for another week, and one side went out. a week later the other side went out. i took the speakers out of he plugs and one the speaker popped off of the backing and the other the wires pulled out of their solders. i atepmted repair but that was too much for me. Now that said that pair had a sennheiser logo on the headphone jack and these new ones do not so i assume those were older models. Frankly though for the price of 14$ each i am very happy to have got the use out of them i did. I just purchased 3 more pairs. Quick FYI for those Not familiar with silicone PLUGS. I know it sounds gross and at first it is but you get used to it. Lick them before you put them in. If they ever feel uncomfortable take them out lick them and put them back. Otherwise it is like using a condom without lubrication. dont hurt those ears!

These ear plug / ear buds worked great, the safety people thought they were just reusable ear plugs in a place earbuds were forbidden. Well worth the money and they lasted me 5 months until one side started to die. If your just buying cheap earbuds don’t do it but if your getting around safety protocol and trying to stay sane at work they are well worth the money however long they last.

Even a Harley with stock pipes is noisy enough to render real high quality sound pointless. But, the sound quality combined with the noise cancellation of plugphones definitely yields a good enough listening experience to improve the pleasure of riding out on the open roads of the High Plains. Make sure it is legal in your state if you are planning to be motoring with these in your ears. You can certainly hear sirens through those noise reduction phones, but you may not be able to convince Johnny Law or The Man of that.

Love the headphones wished the battery life was more . Usually have to recharge during my 10 in half shift.

Havent had these very long but they work well. I am impressed with the noise cancelling mic. Callers never have a problem hearing me in very loud environments. The only two things that could be improved on is battery life- from my experience the battery will last about 6-8 hours and the storage case they come in could be a little larger. Sometimes it's tough to fit everything back in.

The perfect headset for motorcycling. Fits great under the helmet. I can operate the controls with gloves on.The sound is better than most other in ear headsets. Noise cancelling is more than adequate, and comes with spare plugs, and has different types to buy separately that completely blocks out ambient noise. There is a corded version for those who don't want to spend the bluetooth money, and they are the best bang for the buck.

These have worked great for a month now, sound quality seems just as good as other standard ear buds. Actually I'd say they're easier to hear(especially in loud environments) because they fit snug in your ear. I work in a plant where earplugs are mandatory and personal listening devices are forbidden, with the cord running down the back of my shirt into my Galaxy S5 in my front pocket no ones the wiser. I wear these working around 15+ automatic table saws and don't even have to turn my phones volume up all the way to listen to siriusxm talk radio(hey now ;)). Regular ear buds would need to be cranked. They seem durable enough so far but I'm here to buy a back up pair just in case. Highly recommended!

Work extremely well. All the benefits of my regular foam earplugs with the addition of Bluetooth. With these I keep the sound at the lowest level, speakers in the same helmet required the volume to be at the highest available setting. Highly recommend

I've ordered my second pair because I wanted to leave a pair at work. I find traditional ear buds very uncomfortable so I love these as an alternative. Good battery life; no issues whatsoever. Highly recommend.

Updated... I work in cold temps so I bought a Bluetooth device like TaoTronics Bluetooth AUX Adapter. sewed all in a cap and Bluetooth from a Samsung s5 256gb sd card 20000 songs. Phone ebay $50, and the rest @ $20 inexpensive for a great pc, High powered mp3 player you get from this setup. I don't use this as a phone except Wi-Fi app. Great setup. OLD review follows now- I love these. I did have a problem with the connector shorting out. My fault technically because I move around a lot. But cable build quality is not good. Only if they could make a nylon sheath around cable, this would be the product. Good bass and plugs are comfortable.

Sound quality isn't the best for $50 earbud but you know why you want to buy these. I talked to my manager with these on and he just assumed they where standard Earplugs. And That is the whole point of these, Honestly these make my 12 hour shift feel like 10 hours because of all the audio books I listen to. They last for about 10 hours but I also have an External Battery Pack it use to charge these some more over lunch to get me another 1.5 to 2 hours. TAKE GOOD CARE OF THESE, trust me. If you do long shifts or listen to machine noise all day long these are a blessing.

Supervisor has no idea I'm listening to music, sound quality is great

This is my third pair of these headphones they are good quality for the money you pay and I work in them and I do strenuous work so they do get wear and tear and eventually one of the ears will go out after about three months or so and I just order another pair

The only thing I did not like, is the battery is heavier then the control side. It doesn’t hang even around my neck.

They aren't as good as some other earphones, but they have a long battery life.

These are awesome! I work in commercial and industrial construction and ear protection is a must. I like to listen to music but that’s not always an option but now with the pluggones I get the best of both worlds. Being osha compliment is a must and the tips are the same as you would get on any site. They are a good fit, I find that the foam ones are a little more comfortable when using all day but they also get dirty fast so I mainly use the rubber plug style. You get two sets of each type of plugs so if something is wrong or dirty they are easy to swap out. If placed correctly they will stay in all day and have no issues. Battery time is no joke either, I work 10 hr days sometimes more and they last the whole time without an issue. When you first turn them on they let you know he battery level (high med or low) And lastly the range is decent as well, I don’t typically go to far from my phone but iv noticed instead of just cutting out they fade which I thought was pretty cool. I have been about 100-200’ away or more without any issue in an open area. A+ product as far as I’m concerned and will hold up well. If you like music and need ear protection these are eh way to go.

Good for motorcycle riding and fits snug in helmet. Will pull off time to time when turning your head and sound quality is decent. Doesn't have a bass driver but music is clear in the treble. Cut a lot of wind noise to safe levels and if music is high enough you cant hear much. Wires will hurt overtime of you don't give enough slack under the helmet other than that it's awesome. I accidentally washed then and dried then and they still worked great!

My husband loves these!

Use them at work, they look just like and work like regular earplug. They actually block sound better than the ones my factory provides. This is the second pair I bought the first pair one ear went out after 4-5 months, but I think they are worth the money to not have silence.

The best $50 ever spent. Works well to use at Amazon. Discreet as can be. Had direct encounters with managers and they didn’t say crap. Get the orange ones for most discreet.

My husband told me he wanted me to get these so he could use them at work and not have to use earplugs at work and be able to listen to music. And he says they work great he says that it looks like he has regular ear plugs but in reality he's actually listening to music haha. He is trying to convince me to get him a second pair so he has a spare for if he breaks this one.

These things have saved me from boredom at work. I stand at a machine all day with very few people around and having these and being able to listen to my music is awesome! I highly recommend these to anyone needing something to do while you're working in a plant. The noise cancellation is great so if you work in a place with forklifts I suggest lowering the volume while you're walking about, almost had a run in with one cuz my music was too loud. No one was hurt though and it wasn't that close of a call.

Love these! They are durable and looks just like my earplugs in my factory. The major thing is the sound quality isn't to bad, music sounds great through them and they cancel noise out from your environment! I keep it on low so I can enjoy music and still listen to my team members.

Would spend more for a more durable product. But this upgrade is a step in the right direction.

Sounds good cord is long enough to hide it so your boss won’t see it

These are perfect for yard work. Totally block out the motor noise and stay in your ears comfortably. The sound is pretty good but does distort at higher volumes but they stay put all day. All the other Bluetooth earbuds I have tried are frustrating because I have to stop and put them back in my ear or, they don't block the ambient noise. They are a little pricey but the battery will last all day. They will also drowned out the annoying coworker that won't stop talking.

Good swap look-a-like ear plug. Walk around a factory where we cannot wear ear buds but must have a ear plug that is OSHA approved. These gave been noticed by some and I have been reported, but o believe that is my fault for turning them off and on walking out the door at end of shift. Great sound quality and does a better job of canceling out noise than that of their counter part without the ear bud speakers!!! I've been using them for a year and have left them in my work jeans twice in the washer and dry and they work just as well as before.

The battery doesn’t last more than 8 hours if you’re actively listening to music, the noise cancellation is enough to get by in the shop

I got these for my husband who plays music and sometimes likes to go see live bands. He normally uses the disposable type earplugs so these were a step up. He said that these are more comfortable and he feels like he can still hear the music without it being so muffled that it's not appreciable but does not have the ear ringing the next day like he would get with cheaper plugs The only downside to these is the expense and that they are not disposable so you have to be more careful not to lose them. Thanks for reading my review

I had bought the plugfones guardian ear buds at a local hardware store and loved them. One side stopped working after about 9 months and I bought another pair and one side went out after about 9 months. Then I bought the basic ones because I never use the foam plugs just the silicone plugs and it was cheaper. The sound quality is good but not as good as the guardians but they have lasted over a year and are still going strong.

What's not to like? They are exactly like the earplugs people wear at my job. They keep outside noise out! Which is a good thing if your job is loud and you can rock out while your working. Dying laughing the whole time. Just dont tell anyone... It's your secret If you are looking for like super bad ass sound quality they are a 20 $pair of headphones it's awesome they play music ... be cool if they made an upgraded version for it ... I'd pay more but then again they are for work and I will probably just break em. These have lasted all summer. And I work a really intense job so... two thumbs up

I have owned about 3 pair of plug phones....I work in high noise environments on top of welding in these environments. I would recommend these to everyone. The battery life on pervious one would last around 6 hrs, these however last the 12 hrs like advertised. Hearing protection side is good. Most normal earplugs are rated for 32 to 36 db the plug phones I use are rated for 26db and they work great. Very good product for the price

Husband loves, not the best quality, but perfect for what he needs

I ordered this product since it comes with both full protection and high fidelity earplugs. I need full ear protection when I operate machinery. I also need partial ear protection when I operate a lawnmower or chainsaw but still be aware of my surroundings. Both pairs of earplugs work pretty well for me. These earplugs are comfortable to wear and stay put pretty well. They come with interchangeable silicone and foam tips. I like the fact that they come with an anti-drop cord which you can use to keep the earplugs over your neck when not wearing them, which is very convenient and one of the deciding factors for me. A little soft pouch with carabiner is provided for storage and travel as well. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with these earplugs. You get both full and partial ear protection pairs for under $35, which is a pretty good value in my book. The reason I knocked a star off is the lack of instructions. It took me some trial and error to figure out how to get the right protection out of them. Other than that, they get the job done.

Works for what it is. It's not a Bose sound system, but if you want to appear to have earplugs in bc you cannot listen to music, ECT., Theses are a sneaky way to make your day fly by and enjoy music or podcasts for work environments that require earplugs.

Let me start by saying, I've purchased MANY earbuds over the years and I've hated every one of them. For whatever reason, they've never fit right. They would either fall out or I couldn't hear the music very well because they didn't fit, no matter what I did. Because earbuds would be so convenient, I decided to give these a shot. After all, they're a little different than typical earbuds. I almost can't believe it, they're perfect for me. 1. I prefer the rubber tip over the foam but they're both good. 2. They come with a convenient (small) carrying case. 3. The sound quality is equal to any decent earbud style headphones. In my case it's infinitely better because I can actually use them and hear the music. 4. Since they're made just like normal ear plugs, they do a great job cancelling outside noise. If you like to listen to music while you mow the lawn, these are the headphones for you. I can't speak to their durability as I haven't had them long. If any problems arise I will edit this review. Overall, I seriously couldn't be happier. Even if they don't last long, I'll just buy another pair. They're that perfect for me. The bluetooth version would be even better but I just couldn't spend the 100$ on them. Instead, I use the bluetooth device I plug into the stereo in my truck. Simply plug the headphones into the bluetooth thing (I can't recall the name), and pair to it. There you go, instant bluetooth headphones.

I bought these for travel on non-airline aircraft that are loud and require wearing ear protection. They offered the same protection and noise reduction, it seemed, as any old foamie ear pro, but I was able to listen to tunes while traveling. Sound quality was pretty good...not a super high fidelity ear piece, certainly, but about what I expected. My only misgiving was that they were a little uncomfortable for 2-3+ at a time. The soft foamie is better than the other kind, but still a little uncomfortable. Would recommend, though, if you need to wear ear pro, but want to listen to music/etc.

They work really well they are loud so you don't have to turn your music or what ever you listen too I like them very much

These are awesome. If you have a job that requires you to wear ear plugs but you want to listen to music or whatever. This is it. After 6 months in a brutal environment they still work great. The sound quality is not horrible. It lacks bass mostly. Otherwise it's loud enough to hear over loud machines. The battery life is absolutely incredible. Everyday I get 10 straight hours from a charge. If your looking for sound quality then go buy a $200 Bose or Sony headset. If your trying to enjoy yourself while following rules at work then this is it. Highly recommend.

Deadens road/wind noise well for use under a motorcycle helmet but as with normal ear plugs, I can still hear what is going on around me. Great for not getting as tired from constant noise for longer trips and presumably for air travel as well. A tip to keeping the silicone plugs clean is to periodically sort of rolling the plug between your fingers while moving your pinch up the plug in effect squeezing any built up wax out of the plug and ideally, keeping it from being pushed further and further into the tiny tube that runs the sound from the diaphragm through the plug.

I work in a warehouse and I have to wear safety earplugs. There work perfectly for listening to music Or audio books and podcasts wile bring low key. I even had a full conversation with my supervisor and he didn’t notice .. that’s the best part

I bought these for a Christmas gift and my son-in-law used them at work several times and just recently told me the one side stopped any sound coming out of it. Now, I know I only paid $35 for them but honestly, don’t you think they could have lasted a year? I DONT recommend these at all ....a waste of money! I suggest paying $220 on a set that’s made by a Better company!

These headphones come with two sets of headsets so you are never without your entertainment even in the longest of work days. The charging case is top notch and it brings a sleek carrying case to house the charging case and extra headsets. I also appreciated the extra ear bud tips. The quality of the sound isn’t great. It is lacking Bass. I think it is good value for what you pay, but audiophiles need to stay away.

I waited some months to tell you, these are excellent for downlow secret listening. The spend most their time hanging down my chest getting all over everything so I can hear people while I fix their machines. I have to do that with normal hearing protection too. These have survived months of 6 days a week 12 hours a day hardcore work. It’s hard to hear around the noisiest machines but I don’t spend too long under those Next half year update. Identical to day I bought them, they spend 12 hours a day 6 days a week in my ears or hanging so I can hear machine, I listen to about 6+ hours of streaming radio a day. No one still knows they are Bluetooth and not regular ear plugs.

These work well to listen to audiobooks and music with normal volume levels while commuting on motorcycle using a full helmet. They block out the wind noise and I can listen at about the same levels as when I'm just walking with these in. The audio quality is not great not terrible. It's about what you would expect from headphones at this price. I've had them for about 2 months of commuting 3-5 days a week. They fit well and I don't have any trouble with them coming out while putting on a snug properly fitted full helmet. They haven't broken yet.

They work pretty good. My biggest complaint is the noise cancellation. I work in a loud factory and when I have these in I can't hear people right next to me talking to me, but can hear the radio playing from across the giant building I'm working in, weird. The sound quality isn't terrible but is a little lacking in bass. As far as battery life goes it works good for an 8 to 10 hour shift no issues, but once it says battery is low it shuts off a couple minutes later and says it still has 20% battery life left.

They don't block outside noise as much as I was hoping the would. 9/8/16 Update: I just wanted to say that I have found using the silicone covers provide a little more noise cancelling than I first thought. However, I have to really push them into the ear canal to achieve the tight fit necessary for maximum noise blocking. I find the silicone covers to be more comfortable than the foam covers as well. If you aren't comfortable really shoving these things into your ear canal, you might not achieve the seal needed to block outside noise. I still hear outside noise (TV in the next room), but it blocks out enough unwanted noise that I can concentrate on what I am listening to. But, be careful with these because they are a little delicate. The wires are thin and you don't want to pull them out by the wires. Grab the earphone itself for removal.

I have been using these for about 6 months maybe one day a week and they are still working great. I recommend the following: A cord clip so the wire clips to the back collar of my undershirt. This is important so there is always some slack so your head can turn without pulling on the wire. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BSH86Y6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This MP3 player is tiny and runs for a 12 hour shift. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D3QPN3Z/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Sanitizing wipes to clean the ear plugs. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01633Y242/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Great sound quality as well as battery life it’s true you really get 12 hrs of music play time I use them all the time at work only thing I wish it didn’t have so many bulky boxes on the cord and that the cord was a little shorter

Recently, my workplace issued a rule that we have to wear ear protection, and we couldn’t listen to music anymore. A few of us figured we should buy some of these and use them. A few notes: They work really well as functioning ear protection, but just as the listing states, sound quality is not the first priority. They sound like $10 earbuds from Walmart, which is fine by me, but some people can’t listen to anything below professional mixing gear. Second, and this is likely just me ‘cuz I have a tad bit of a latex alergy and sensitive skin, but they irritate my skin if I wear them for more than 3 hours. I work 12 hour shifts. Overall, though, the build quality is firm, they do act as both functional headphones AND hearing protection, and the best part is, none of my bosses have realized I’m Still listening to music at work. Well worth the $20 price tag.

this comes with 2 pair, one charging case, different ear fit pieces (triple layer are the best) they took a minute to get used to. you can volume up and down in them and voice control your phone, skip songs, answer calls all that. they each have a touch button on the exterior built into the earpiece so doesn't take up extra room. get loud and block out a lot of noise depending on the inner ear piece you're wearing (I only use the big one) mowed the lawn wearing them, put them in my pocket, forgot and washed my shorts! I sat them on the hood of my car to dry and they still work perfect!! nice to have 2 pair and they hook up separately so they can be used at the same time by different or same device. (only some devices support 2 headphones hooked up at once) HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! GREAT HEADPHONES! SUPER TOUGH!

Have to wear earplugs for work but cant have ear buds because they do not block the sounds earplugs do. But these bridge that gap! And even though they are osha approved, the color is perfect for safety to think they are regular earplugs so you dont have to worry about proving they approved or anything

Hearing protection is required at my work. And to have a product that both protects my hearing and provides my personal music is incredible!!! The only reason I gave 3 stars on Durability/Material was because I just received the product today. After work. The test will be tomorrow and then on out. The sound is amazing! For $25! Normally I would expect no low frequencies (bass) from earbuds this small. Ha! Not these bad boys! Excellent tonal range! If your job requires or is aided by hearing protection; this will be the best $25 you'll ever spend!!!!!! Just use common sense when handling these ear plugs! Don't pull from the wires! Either on the plugs themselves or the jack. They'll short eventually! Get your money out of them and rock it out at work!!!😁😁😁

Very good

it worked about 4 months without a problem. 12 hour work shifts, in my ears all night. Its definitely worth the $20.00. When you see everyone looking depressed but you can smile and enjoy an audiobook during grueling repetitive work it makes you very thankful for these "plugfones". Anticipate the wiring to eventually work themselves out if you're doing manual work and occasionally get the wires caught on things and yanking... probably not safe letting the wires dangle, better to tuck them in your shirt if using heavy machinery. But I'm buying more and will continue. Might strip the sleeve and solder the wiring back... anyways... great investment... listen to audiobooks at work 🙂 get smarter while doing dummy work.

Ok Ill start by saying I read reviews of these and was leary but purchased anyway and so far one week in and 8 hrs a day they have been pretty good. The sound suppression as far a hearing protection works for what I need however in a very loud environment the silicone plugs wont cut it, Im sure the foamies will work better but there are not replacements for them and foamies are not cleanable. As for the sound quality, Certain songs come through a little tinny but what do you expect from a tiny speaker, sound quality depends on getting them to the right depth in your ear. Battery life has been great 8 hr shift no charging. You cant pause play on an mp3 player but volume adjust works. The range actually surprises me at times. Now to the important part the battery and controls hide under your shirt collar so far no one has questioned that they are ear plugs and I get to keep listening to my music so the night goes by faster. All in all Id definitely buy them again. I use these with a sandisk sport mp3 player that has bluetooth.

The sound quality is much better than I anticipated. Also, I was afraid that these wouldn’t stay in well since I have very small ear holes, but these stay put wonderfully!

Worked great for a couple weeks, then the buttons quit working.

Great . Ive used them for quite a while no issues long battery life good sound quality and comfortable. Not giving five stars because the cord is too long and the case is cheap it should have a clip or something and more quality case for the price point but these bad boys have done me well. I ordered replacement comfort tips they are way more comfortable than the foam ones if you plan to use on commercial jobs every day

Awesome product I work in manufacturing and can hear Awesome and still blocks out noise from my job can still hear someone if they need to talk to me do need to have your phone with you because if you get to far away it will break up

I've had these a few months and I like them for their value. I wear them under s full face motorcycle helmet and the isolation is very good. My problem is that the tube is blocked with ear wax and I need to figure a way to remove it. My old ER6i's had removable filters. You get what you pay for, most times.

Absolutely worth the money. I work in a repair shop that is a very hard place for earbuds to be in. These have held up wonderfully for the 9 months I've had them. Great battery life make it through a full shift on a charge and then some. I will definitely buy again when. These finally stop working.

Very good

Headphones work great. Much better sound than the older versions. I'm a welder/pipe fitter and unfortunately I have to do a lot of grinding at my current job. Even when using a 7 inch grinder I can still hear the music but get the benefits of the -25 decibels that the plugs provide. The reason for the four star instead of a five star rating is they could have made the plug that connects your device a little more sturdy. The sheath that covers the 90 degree angled plug was not glued the the wire. I think that this might have mad one side fail. This really needs to be addressed. But for now it's the only way I can listen with headphones at work because headphones are not allowed 😉

I'm on my second pair of these, and I wanted to wait to see how they held up to write a review. I love these headphones. I am a proffesional woodworker, and spend my day surrounded by noisy equipment, these things block virtually everything out, even annoying coworkers at the right volume(just kidding guys, but they do work that well!). The first pair, the wire eventually pulled out after almost 4 months of use. Which isn't bad considering the amount of use they got. With the second pair, the first thing I did was put a tiny drop of CA glue where the wire meets the case, and this at least seems to help, in fact it works so well, that the wire insulation is now pulling off the wires, but the phones still work. I will caution the new user to take it easy when removing these phones, and do not yank on the wires, or you will be sorely disappointed with the results. I also use them when riding my motorcycle. I will caution you all, however that they work well enough to require you to be hyper alert on the road. They will block out traffic. I will buy more of these, and probably even gift them to friends an coworkers. Excellent product.

I'm a military truck and tank mechanic, I love my Plugfones, They work very well by keeping out unwanted noses , keeping in music and phone conversations. They are very durable and the battery life is very good.

I like going to races, but realized that I stop being able to hear the announcers after the cars space out, and I lose track of what's happening. With these, I can listen to the race's live broadcast while effectively protecting my ears. Total life hack! The audio is about what you'd expect at this price point and I don't expect they'll last for too long, but for what I needed them for they were perfect.

Great sound quality and superb hearing protection. Its just like having earplugs in, and then you can have music or podcasts on while you work.

I was really impressed by this. As long as you insert foam correctly in the ear. They sound great ! for only this Price 5 Stars! i Love headphones i spend money on Beats, Bose, ect. Of course they do not sound like expensive headphones but they do not sound distorted and they do not stay behind in my opinion.. Great Product . 5 Stars

Extremely happy with these. I'm using them with my cardo com system and they fit like a glove while wearing a helmet. The sound quality is very impressive. Only thing I regret is not ordering them sooner.

First impressions. Will re-review in a few months. These are fantastic on motorcycle with helmet at highway speeds. I searched the World Wide Web for weeks looking for this type of headphones for motorcycle riding. They don’t come out when putting on helmet. The sound is way better than expected. Even have decent enough bass. I don’t need to turn volume up to highest setting. I was really stunned how much ambient sound was being blocked out at speed when securely in ear. One issue I seem to have is pairing. I can’t seem to just turn them on and have them automatically connect to my iPhone. I have to long push from off to re-pair every time and manually connect from Bluetooth settings. Unlike every other speaker or ear buds I use. It’s weird. Maybe I’m doing something wrong. I may be a dumdum. Battery life seems to be as advertised. Some other ratings say they stopped working after a year or something. We shall see. So far, excellent and decent price. Update. Been about 5 or 6 months. Still good. The first set of memory foam tips wore out and broke pretty quickly. Probably from trying to keep them clean. But the plasticy rubbery ones work great too. A little uncomfortable in ear but when riding don’t notice. Still love them.

These are great at work and no one knew I was using them. One downfall was I can't get orange replacement foam pieces except through the company. I did so but the mail person delivered them at the wrong address somi never received them. I'd rather go through amazon as I know they will get it to me.

Need to be updated to 2022 connections

I wear these for work. I use the pugs that came already attached. And they only last two days. Then I used the other pair. They are a little small. But as long as you insert these properly they work well. I work in an extremely loud factory.

So I’ve been rocking the blue and orange ones of these but the corded ones for years and they’re Amazing . I even have them plugged into a Bluetooth receiver at work so I can pause and play from my pocket💁🏼‍♂️. Needed something with no wire and these are a little bulky but they do have the clip and they also have two battery things that you can let rock on each shoulder . How’s for the sound quality …. I have AirPods and j have nice over the ear headphones and these compete for sure … AirPods have no bass and way to much treble and these are the opposite , you can hear all that bass and hear all the treble beautifully . Now for how long they last we will see…. But the corded version of these for 20$ last me years

Absolutely love these. They cancel out so much outer noise and they don’t hurt my ears. Only downfall for me is the cord is super long.

Worked great right out of the box as they were already charged recharge them for work later that night, they worked great was able to get almost 8 hours of listening to music out of them before the battery died box says up to 10hrs so will see but overall so far great product I do know others with the same product that have an experienced any issues

I purchased these to serve as dual purpose . I use them to help cancel noise at work as I am a diesel technician by trade and the environments I work on can be extremely noisy and I also use these at the gym . At work they do a really good job at lowering the surrounding noise and it allows me to continually learn as I prefer to listen to training and financial podcasts . They really shine for me at the gym as I can just about drowned out the music that is blaring in the facility . These provide an excellent range of volume and the battery life is better than any other previous pair I have owned ( 4th different ones I've tried ) . Overall I am very happy with this purchase !

I bought these since I work in a factory with loud machinery and I got tired of hearing the same noises for 12-hours straight. No complaints when it comes to quality, just don't pull them out of your ears by the cord, you'll probably damage them. The length of the cord is perfect. I'm able to run it under my clothes to my pockets with plenty of cable left. The sound quality is actually fantastic. I was surprised how clear the tones are and the bass is insane for these little things. The tips can easily be removed for cleaning. The only reason I gave it 4/5 stars is because I was hoping it would block out more noise. The earplugs they give us at work are rated the same as these, yet these do not block out as much noise so that is odd. It is enough for what I do, just wish it was a little better when it comes to noise reduction. I highly recommend this product. I've already talked a few guys at work into ordering a pair.

I like most that these earbuds are OSHA approved and ANSI certified because I can wear them at work and hear my music safely. They’re comfortable and durable. Two complaints- 1) the volume controls are at the phone end of the wires instead of closer to the user (small issue) and 2) there are only one set each of both types of ear plugs. They get dirty quick and it seems there should be multiples provided for replacement when they get too dirty. Other than those two small issues, these are great quality.

I bought these for my father who works in a metal fabrication factory. (he is still very new to technology but is coming along) I recently got him a ipod so he could listen to his music at our campground(Bluetooth speaker) and then he wanted to be able to listen at work but comply with OSHA. We look around and did not feel comfortable spending $80+ on headphones and they all seemed to have mixed reviews anyways. I got these for him for his birthday and he is in LOVE with them. First pair lasted about 1 year before he got the cord snagged on something and it ripped the cord from the ear bud, he requested to have the same pair as he loved them and work perfect for his environment, he liked trying both types of ear buds that came with it but the foam ones got very dirty very quickly and he prefers the silicone. we love the fact we can replace the silicone part as needed (anyone who works in a metal factory knows its dirty in there) The carry case that comes with them is very nice/sturdy and he likes that he has "storage" for them. Overall these are just awesome and give him freedom to listen to his music anywhere he wants to now! Highly recommend

I have small ear canals, which makes finding anything to cancel noise or for music hard! These earplugs are fantastic. They block loud sounds so they’re perfect for the range. They actually fit in my narrow ear canals with no issues. There is a bigger size for those with normal ear canals as well. The quality is very durable, made strong and feels like it will last long term. The pouch case is also very well made. 5 stars

Fantastic! They're durable and my customers think I have real safety plugs in and they don't give me a hard time about them. Just as a precaution, they work so well, you have to keep the volume super low or you won't hear anything other than the music. These are super for on the plane too (I would even go so far as saying they work better than noise cancelling headphones). I had mine for over 6 months before the cable got a short just near the plug.... All the other ones only last maybe a month; mostly because I keep the phone in my back pocket while listening to music when I'm working.

They work pretty well, the audio fidelity is reasonable enough, they aren't going to compete with a set of Klipsch S4s etc, but they are acceptable. The noise isolation is pretty solid too, I use the 'tree' ends as they seal better for me. I use these on a motorcycle and they drop enough noise to be useful. They are well clear of the helmet liner as well as they go pretty far into the ear. The one nitpick is that they are hard to grip to remove from my ears and I wind up tugging on the cords at times, which will not end well at some point. Mine are also not labeled L/R which is kind of annoying.

I use these to block out sound in our moderately noisy office. Without music, they don't completely block out the external chatter. However, I only have to play white noise/music at a very low volume to completely block external sounds. It does provide overall better isolation than average earbuds. Ive had them for a month and no quality /connection issues. I use the silicone plugs. I found the foam ones worthless.

I love these things, our shop doesn't allow music of any kind, i have been using these for quite some time with great success. The sound quality is really good if you are using the foam earplugs, you lose a lot of bass if you use the rubber ones, but they stay cleaner and are easier to use. The foam pads don't compact very well for insertion due to the hole down the center and can be a challenge to get in some times. I only give them 4 stars instead of 5 because the cord is too short based on the nature of how these are used. Since you have to hide the cord, it would be nice if i could run the cord down my back under my shirt then tuck it into my front pocket with my mp3 player. So i either have to buy an extension cord, or wear a undershirt with a pocket which adds a slight detection risk if your over-shirt is a thin material. It would be nice if the cord was a foot longer.

These are great wired ear buds. Only thing be nice heavier wire to the buds. Good clear sound. Look just like ear plugs.

I bought this to try with racing scanner for nascar, its VERY loud there and I was not sure if I could hear the scanner over the noise BUT these worked great. Clear sound. And noise reduction was great.

Sanity Restored! I have got to say that these have made work a bit more tolerable. I work in a factory with forklifts and very noisy machines. If I keep the volume at a medium level I can still hear the horns and backup beeps. To hear conversation on the floor I just take one out without fear that a co-worker will discover music coming from my "earplugs". If a background soundtrack is what your looking for, these are perfect. Just don't be jamming to the music and forget to be safe. So far I have used them 5 days a week for 8 hours a day and they are still in perfect working order after 4 weeks. I am not overly cautious with them but do try to remove by the plugs, not the wire. Very satisfied and feel these earbuds are worth the money.

Surprisingly good sound quality.

They're very comfortable, and have perfect sound quality. Great for using on a motorcycle, or at work on a construction site. I had my last pair for almost three years with regular use! Unfortunately I found out they don't like washing machines, so don't let that happen. The only real damage on that pair, as far as I could tell, is that the wires got loose going into the jack so it just made a poor connection. I've had my second pair for quite awhile. They work great, and I even caught them on a clip of a drill which tore the insulation. Little bit of tape to fix that, but they never quit working.

These headphones are very much like the wired version of plugfones. I always loved my plugfones because I have a small ear canal and the soft foam earplug style headphones are the only earbuds I can wear comfortably. These fit identical. Sound quality is a little bit better then the wired set. Battery life is very good and got me through a 12 hour flight. The review states "noise canceling", but they are really "noise isolating" and do it as well as any foam earplugs. When watching videos, Bluetooth latency is present but fairly small. Maybe around 150 milliseconds. Not ideal, but you can get used to it. Still, I would very likely break out my wired plugfones if watching a movie. No idea how battery life will hold out in the long term, but as with any lithium battery powered device, charging should only be done when necessary to maximize lifespan. UPDATE: I dropped my rating to 4 star due to an annoying feature. When the battery gets low, it will interrupt your audio and announce the battery is low, put it on a charger. I would be fine with that except this announcement occurs once per minute with a low battery. If the mfg is paying attention to these reviews, please change this to be a single announcement per power cycle with a final warning before shutdown, but no other.
